“My Brother’s Bowels” - Podge & Rodge

In the build-up to Bowel Cancer Awareness Month in April, the Irish Cancer Society and Podge & Rodge are challenging the embarrassment factors associated with bowel cancer symptoms with the launch of their funny and insightful movie, “My Brother’s Bowels”.  This short film aims to: encourage people to talk openly about the symptoms of bowel cancer; ‘embarrass people out of their embarrassment’; highlight the importance of the early detection of bowel cancer; encourage people to call the National Cancer Helpline (Freefone 1800 200 700 - Republic of Ireland) and to visit their GP if they are concerned.  My Brother’s Bowels can be viewed via the Irish Cancer Society website at:  www.cancer.ie/bottomline
